When the troubled young man disappears, Hollyn has no idea what happened. Until she gets a call that changes everything… Can Merrick overcome his past and become the man God has called him to be? Can Hollyn’s unconditional love open his guarded heart? When divine intervention and a loving heart work together, miracles can happen…
